[Results] Prelims 2020 Over - Gearing for 2021

Because of the corona virus issue? If it does not happen then worst affected will be people whose interview is stuck, around 600-700 such people I think are yet to appear for their interview.


@neyawn sir and others, what is your take?

This is the official Thread for discussion of Prelims Postponement, Please do not create new threads for the same.

Universal Declaration of Human Rights wale question me the answer should be A. 1 and 2 only. Fundamental duties do not reflect UNDHR principles as such

This was very complex. UNDHR is just a set of principles and ... actually in consonance with all 3. 

I doubted the FD part but there are certain UDHR which correlate to FD. But, I am not vouching for it as well strongly. 

I marked All 3 correct. There are only partial reasons to include FD. 

It could be or could not be. Not sure. Only UPSC knows. 

To promote harmony and spirit of common brotherhood, opportunity for education to children, I think these are part of UNDHR.

If in notification it's 33% well and fine it would be 66. I always thought it was 1/3rd. May be I am wrong.

general observation In ORN libraries of new delhi
No of. peoples scoring 110+ after every prelims ( Before Result Declaration): infinity
No.of people actually scoring 110+ after prelims (after Result declaration): Some ‘rational’ and ‘real’ number

moral of the story - all bluffs mostly

Yeah the marks are more than last year, in general. If you asked a random guy about his score last year, more often than not you'd hear a score around 100. I've already heard more than 10-15 people scoring 120+ this year.

All the tricks worked in the exam. The people scoring less are those who didn't take the risk of trying those tricks, because the tricks failed last year.

I'm expecting a shocking cut off prediction from Shankar baba today. Any idea when it'll be out?

@SantiCazorla I too agree with it. But deep down we all know there are students who inflate their marks. What I found unusual this year is that variation in marks in my circle...
